    Isn't the Team Rocket takeover happening? Why can I still not teach my Mewtwo something other than Frustration? Why does this game make everything so fucking difficult?

    The Team Rocket takeover ended a few days ago.

    Lmao that's just great. I logged in a few days ago and tried it but the app crashed and I never logged back in. I really think this whole "it must be team rocket takeover to teach your Mewtwo something" is the dumbest fuckin thing I've encountered in video games in a long time. Just let me teach him something you clowns.

    Well, no dumber than the game encouraging you to keep a Pokemon in a perpetual state of suffering so it's slightly more powerful. :P

    Mewtwo in a constant state of frustration really mirrors my life lol.

    Ugh.

    Very curious to see how their Monster Hunter works - people seemed impressed with the previews, but who knows if it'll catch on.

    Here's my shocked face at hear that NBA All-World is shutting down. Seriously, Niantic's arrogance in basing all their games around location/movement is going to be their death knell.

    Like, you had the friggin' NBA license, just make a fun basketball game for mobile. Nobody wants to fucking walk around and collect NBA players. That concept works perfectly for Pokemon, since that in the series' DNA.

    Good games will bring players and profits. Shoehorning your beliefs will kill games fast.

    The only other one of the GPS games to have any lasting success is Jurassic World Alive, and it's a shadow of Pokemon Go.

    The game was popular because it was Pokemon, and it only survived the abuse it's taken because it was Pokemon.

    This is all kinds of hilariously ridiculous but especially:
    The host mentioned the reappearance of PvP bugs lately, and asked why they can’t hire more devs.

    Steranka says more developers makes version control complicated. “The code base especially within PvP is incredibly tricky and very specialized”, especially for a “fast and snappy” PvP system, where Internet connectivity matters.

    I mean, the reason why they don't hire more devs is pretty obvious as indicated by the previous posts. But Jesus Christ, what is your version control system? A napkin? How the fuck do more devs make version control hard unless you literally don't use it or you have like all your code in one file so every commit causes insane merge conflicts?

    The wife has been bummed out today because some of her old team members got laid off today. She’s positive that if she was still there they would have made her choose, which would have broke her.

    Pretty damning stuff alleged here.

    "When Doe brought these issues up to Niantic’s diversity and inclusion leadership, she left the meeting “in fear of losing her job,” she alleged, after being told her evaluation at Niantic had been — and would continue to be — impacted by speaking up about workplace issues. Niantic continued to discourage employees from discussing sexism in the workplace, she said, after the company’s women’s group, called Wolfpack, issued a survey asking about Niantic’s culture. That survey found that “many” women at the company saw a “sexist work culture” with unequal pay at Niantic. Niantic chief marketing officer Mike Quigely reportedly told the group to remove comments about sexism from its presentation, and advised the group to stop hosting surveys."

    Jesus... assuming true that's about as black & white as you can get. "Men with fewer qualifications but same positions making way more money than women." Should presumably be pretty easy to prove too? Like not sure how you could possibly justify that.
